This is a great manly quilt from his girl friend, Amanda for Christmas! I had taken a Thanksgiving trip and had to make this quilt when I returned but it turned out very nice and was one of the easiest ones I have made recently. I love the hunter green and camel sashings and borders. Thank you Amanda for letting me make "YOUR MAN" his quilt!

This is the second quilt that her mother commisioned me to make for her. The first one was from her high school years and this is from college. I wish the pictures would show how pretty this one turned out. The blue and oranges are gorgeous. Merry Chirstmas Kelly!

When my sisters and I were very young all three of us loved to make things. I think that was the way kids entertained themselves in those days. Our mother sat us down with old clothes and needles and thread and we made our dolls clothes.
My creativity grew from there and I found myself in high school making all of my own clothes. I did get a lot of attention with my matching outfits including hats. Since I was shy maybe that was my way of creating my own world and at the same time getting attention.
I finally did get tired of making clothes and went into quilting. The first year I quilted I made every family member quilts, quilts and more quilts.
You can only make so many quilts and so many bags before you have no space left. What is a very nutty creative person going to do about this?? Well you are going to open an ETSY shop and sell some of this stuff, right?? http://fabricartist21.etsy.com/My neighbor asked me to make her a T-Shirt Quilt and I have been doing that for over a year now. I take special orders through my Etsy shop. I have become very busy with this business and will continue to create t-shirt quilts as long as their are customers that want them.
